Episode 307 - He Kissed Her Again - The Murder of Tracy Mondabough

In the spring of 2020, as isolation settled over Pella, Iowa, one woman’s new beginning ended in violence.
Tracy Mondabough was building a fresh start when a silver Cadillac began appearing in the background of her life. What followed was a confrontation caught between obsession and heartbreak, leaving investigators to untangle what was planned and what was simply justified after the fact.
